EARTH'S HOPES.
BY w. ]. ANDERSON.

OF in the morning clear and bright
Of life's great work beginning,
Swelled budding hopes OF montal might,
And battles worth the winning.
But ere the sun IN midday gaze
Looked down in glowing splendor,
The whitening blight Of weary days
Had blasted hope buds tender.
The grander hopes shall never die
W''hin our nature glowing,
Which lead our aspiration high
1heir iuil fruition knowing;
So hope the way-worn spirit lifts
From weary care and duty,
To where the holy sunlight rifts
Its beams of love and beauty.

Thomas Jeffer.on.s savm,,,.

MI. otahsbury, the stenographer, used to
Tell a story about the erection of a sawmill at
Aiontlcello by President Jefferson, after be
naa retll'ed from the presidential chair. He
invented a windmill, and sent for an en-
giheer, TO whom he submitted his plans.
showing nm q hill exposed to currents Of air
OH inc Top OF which he proposed to build q
sa"lnll!' to be propelled by vertical sails. The
maj OF professional science examined the
plan, and listened with profound attention
ana difference to Mr.. Jefferson's expla-
nations OF it, and to his eloquent il.
lustratlon of the advantages 1t would
secure. Having heard him through, and
Delng asked by the philosopher "what be
Thought OF it," he replied, with great SINGER
lIy, that 1t was a most ingenious idea, and
was decidedly the best plan for u sawmill he
naa over seen. Jefferson was delighted, and
forthwith entered into a written agreement
Tor tho erection of such q mill on tho neigh
boring heights. Tho work vent bravely on,
inc inventor very frequently mounting his
morse and riding over to see how it proceeded.
"heh the frame was Up, n the building ap-
preached its completion, the engineer rode
over to Monticellot to obtain a supply of money
ana TO get some directions about the saws,
jefferson kept him to dinner, and when the
cloth was removed, and wine sat upon the
table, he turned to his guest, and with an air
OF much satisfaction, exclaimed:
AND SO, MI. -, you like my millm
10, sir, indeed, very much; it is certainly
ono of the greatest Improvements in tho con-
struction of a sawmill 1 over Witnessed
you think the sails are so hung that it
cannot fail to work wel?"
certainly, it must work; it can't help it."
"And there's always u wind Oh that hill; il
it does not come up one valley, it is sure to
come up the other; and the hill is so high and
steep that there is nothing to interrupt the
full sweep of the wind, come which way it
will. You think, then, on the whole, that
the thing cannot fail of complete successao
should think So, sir, but for one thing"
"Ah! what's that"
"Ihave been wondering i'll my own mind
how you are to get up your saw logs"
Jefferson threw up his hands and eyes. II
never thought of that" Tho mill was aban.
doned, of course.-Ben: Perley Poore in Bos.

Clothes Made of Fish Skin,

The Gilyaks make another use of the
salmon which I do not remember to have
heard of in other countries, inasmuch as they
employ the skin for garments. Hence the
Chinese call them "Yupitatze," or fish skin
strangers. The fish skin is prepared from
two kinds Of salmon. They strip it off with
dexterity, and by beating with a mallet re-
move the scales, and SO render it supple.
Clothes thus made, l need hardly say, are
waterproof, but they have an Objectionable
smell to noses polite. I was fortunate enough
to purchase on the Amur o fish skin coat,
which l believe i'll England is unique, for
there is nothing like it in the British museum.
1t is handsomely embroidered on the back,
the intermixture OF colois being skillfully
wrought in needlework.
Fish skin, however, is used only for sum-
mer clothing. In winter the Gilyak delights
to clothe himself in the skins OF his dogs, or
of fox or wolf, as being next warmest. The
tribes further west, as indeed do all the Sibe-
rian people, employ the skins of the reindeer
and elk for winter clothing.-Henry Lans-
' dell, D. D., in Harper's Magazine.

Treatment in Sea sickncss.

DR.. Fordyce Barker, of New York, who is
al experienced traveller by ocean. suggests
Ill Science u method for the treatment of sea
sickness. He advises that in making u short
passage over rough water n hearty meal
should be eaten not more than two or three
hours before sailing, and that the individual
should, if possible, keep i'll the center of the
vessel, and lie down before starting, and that
he should avoid disagreeable sights and smells.
In making ocean voyages, he should select his
berth with these same objects i'll view, and
should remain i'll bed for one or odays, and
cat regularly and heartily. He should take a
cup of coffee or tea each morning before ris-
ing, and should keep the bowels regulated. If
diarl'hpa sets i'll, it should be controlled bv
the remedies usually given for cholera NOR
bus. II the weather becomes rough, he should
go to bed before becoming sick.
1t may be of interest to note that a large
number of remedies has been recommended
from time to time by physicians and others
for sea sickness. Among them are the
bromidcs of potassium and sodium, hydratc
of choral, opium chloroform, hydrocyanic
acid, alcohol, nitric of amyl, cocaine, strong
coffee, Hoffinan's a%nodyne, bismuth, bical-
Donate of soda and nitro glycerine; for ex-
tcrnal application, ice, stimulating liniments
of bclladonna, chloroform and camphor, and
hot bottles to the feet. 1t is n safe principle
i'll medicine that when, for any given disease,
II large number Of remedies is recommended,
the specific remedy, or that which will cure
oil the cases of that disease, or the most of
them, has not Yet been discovered.

Hunting the Grizzly.

The skin of the grizzly is one of the most
valuable trophies a sportsman can obtain on
any field, and its rarity, and the danger and
excitement attending the taking of it, the
courage it bespeaks, render it n prize of which
the winner may justly feel proud for a lifo-
time.
The best localities in which to hunt the
grizzly bear-that is, those most accessible
and in which he is the most numerous-are
the Big Horn, Shoshone, Wind River, Bear
Tooth, Belt and Crazy Mountains, in Wyo-
ming and Montana, all of which may DO
easily reached by way of the Northern Pacific
road.
The best time of year to hunt for this, as
well as all tho other species of large game in
the Rocky mountains, is in the months of
September, October and November, though
III the latter month the sportsman should not
venture high up into the mountains, where
heavy snowfalls occur. There is n great deal
OF this class of hunting done in the summer
months, but it is contrary to the laws OF
nature, and should not be INDUCED in by any
true sportsman. The skins arc nearly worth
less then, while in the autumn they are prime
the heat is oppressive, and tho flies and mus.
qultoes are great pests.-G. o. Shields in
Harper's Magazine.

n NUMBER Of our farmers are seri.
ously contemplating putting Il few
sheep Oh their farms and we say that
it is a move in the right direction, one
that must prove both advantageous
and profitable. This country is spe-
clally fitted for sheep and it has been

in other portions of the territory that
they are more profitable than grain

Antelope creek, south of Dickinson,
has a bunch of sheppard he says they
are undoubtedly the stock for Dakota.

and brings him a sure income every
year. A prominent sheep man east
OF the Missouri says that sheep are
the bonanza stock for Dakota. Take
sheep out of Dakota and we are bank.

and weed out our farms, to furnish
money at almost any time of the year,
and to supply the family with choice
